Operation Ivy [Ska-punk # California]

[tzs]

Operation Ivy was an American punk rock band from Berkeley, California formed in May 1987. The band was stylistically important as one of the first bands to mix the elements of hardcore punk and ska into a new amalgam called ska punk and was critical to the emergence of Lookout Records and the so-called "East Bay Sound."

The band's name was derived from the Operation Ivy series of nuclear tests in 1952. Although the band released just one full-length album before breaking up in May 1989, Operation Ivy is well remembered as the direct antecedent of popular band Rancid and for wielding a lasting stylistic influence over numerous other bands.

Operation Ivy- 924 Gilman, Berkeley Ca. 5/28/89 LAST SHOW Multicam w/Sony D6 Audio

I have been wanting to put all of these sources together for a long time, and thanks to @copperpot65 we finally got it done! This is the final, most comprehensive document of the show. Here is what we did:
Took my shaky, handheld angle from the sound booth and brightened/deshake’d it
Added a 2nd angle that I received in trade back in 1989 and edited that in to make this a multicam for the 1st 40min or so
Used a different audio source- Sony D6 recording with Sony ECM909 mic (xfer from master tape, recorded by “anonymous”), which was then GREATLY enhanced by @copperpot5. I can’t believe how good it sounds!

so, while it isn’t perfect due to dark/grainy etc source footage, this is as good as it’s gonna get. Enjoy!

Recorded by: Shayne Stacy (soundbooth angle), Unknown (floor angle), “Anonymous”(D6 Audio Recording
